Re: You know you're nursing a toddler when...

When you take your older kid to the eye doctor, and while she's getting her eye exam your toddler is feeling you up while giving a high-volume monologue about "pupple". "I like dat one-two pupple, mommy. I like da big pupple. I want pupple. I want a nuss."

Re: You know you're nursing a toddler when...

When she tells Grandma (my mom) this story : "once upon a time, there was a girl named J, and there were some nums and they were called nummies. And one was really full and had lots and lots of milk, and one was empty. The end"
She also talks to my breasts. Like "num, do you want some yogurt?" "the nummie thought that was funny!" Sometimes it's a little weird.

That one-two pupple line is so amazing - what a cutie!!

Still no names from my nursling, but he has started to interrupt nursing sessions to push my breast up toward my face, indicating that I should have a sip, too. I've told him no, thank you, but he's not satisfied until I pretend to try it.

Re: You know you're nursing a toddler when...

Once in a while when my DS requests to switch sides he will say "buuuh-bye" and wave to the breast he's leaving. Cracked me up the first time he did that.
Also, occasionally in the middle of nursing, he'll stop, bring his little fingers to my breast, pretend to grab some milk and then feed me some of my pretend milk . Soooo cute!
